To put that in perspective, the recent kings of over-franchised diminished returns, Saw (6 sequels since 2004) and Paranormal Activity (3 sequels since 2007), opened to $18 million and $19 million in the US respectively.

According to Bloody Disgusting, this means we’re likely to be seeing at least one sequel as the producers bought the rights to 7 potential Texas Chainsaw Massacre movies, which is pretty bold as the original series only managed 3 sequels, and then the reboot got a prequel.
